                       -- bloody -- and a five-dollar
                       shake.
                                   BUDDY

                       Martin and Lewis.
                                   VINCENT
                       Did you just order a five-dollar
                       shake?
                                   MIA
                       Sure did.
                                   VINCENT
                       A shake?  Milk and ice cream?
                                   MIA
                       Uh-huh.
                                   VINCENT
                       It costs five dollars?
                                   BUDDY
                       Yep.
                                   VINCENT
                       You don't put bourbon in it or
                       anything?
                                   BUDDY
                       Nope.
                                   VINCENT
                       Just checking.
                                  ......
                                 VINCENT
                       Can I have a sip of that?  I'd like
                       to know what a five-dollar shake
                       tastes like.
                                   MIA
                       Be my guest.
         She slides the shake over to him.  ...
        ... He takes a sip.
                                   VINCENT
                      Goddamn!  That's a pretty fuckin'
                      good milk shake.
                                   MIA
                      Told ya.
                                   VINCENT
                      I don't know if it's worth five
                      dollars, but it's pretty fuckin'
                      good.

Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction 
Watched this film on video yesterday and just thought: What was that "a 
five-dollar shake"?   What could that shake content?
And how much is a milk shake in US?
